Uninstall a program using the Patch Manager Computer Explorer

The Computer Explorer allows you to:

• View information and execute tasks on remote computers directly from the Patch Manager Console
• Execute tasks against a single target
• Use the Task Options Wizard to extend that task to a group of managed computers.
